Portland vs Minnesota: prediction for the NBA match

Portland are continue to surprise. After an injury to Damian Lillard it seemed like the Blazers lost a chance for a play-off spot. But without Dame team started to play better than with him. In four most recent matches Billups' men recorded four victories. Among others, they beat Toronto (114:105) and Boston (109:105). 

Anfernee Simons, C.J. McCollum and Nassir Little put up a great performance for Oregon team. Seems like this trio is a great replacement for Lillard. They have something to prove to club's board, because not too long ago general manager was ready to trade any player, but Dame. 

Minnesota managed to get closer to the play-off zone. Timberwolves are currently at the 7th spot in the Western Conference, but they are only one victory away from the 6th placed Denver. A victory in the upcoming match should be enough to get over the Nuggets. 

In the previous match Wolves recorded a home victory over Brooklyn. Finch's men put up a great offensive performance. It helped them to beat the visitors from the East coast. Wolves recorded a 136:125 victory.
